    Higger Tor is a steep outcrop of gritstone that stands high opposite Burbage edge. The climbing routes up the steeper side are all classic Peak District struggles so stop and watch if anyone is climbing when you run past. The running here is excellent with brilliant loops from Burbage, Hathersage, Longshaw or any of the Stanage car parks.

        Lovely little rock formation. Great fun can be had scrambling over the rocks! In places the path isn't super obvious, but there's a few different ways down, so you can't usually go too far wrong if you pick a sensible looking route!
